With her mighty wings spread wide and Ardent Blade aflame, Saint Celestine is the living embodiment of the God-Emperor’s wrath. Her halo blazes like a star upon the smog-wreathed, blood-soaked battlefields of the 41st Millennium; its holy light leading the faithful to victory time and time again. As heretics and daemons tear at her flesh, she calls down fires of retribution from on high to smite the wicked and unrighteous. If she is to fall in battle, none should mourn as she is Celestine, the Living Saint, and death is her duty.

Publisher's Summary

After the success of their desperate mission to Salvation's Reach, Colonel Commissar Gaunt and the Tanith First race to the strategically vital forge world of Urdesh, besieged by the brutal armies of Anarch Sek. However, there may be more at stake than just a planet. The Imperial forces have made an attempt to divide and conquer their enemy, but with Warmaster Macaroth himself commanding the Urdesh campaign, it is possible that the Archenemy assault has a different purpose to decapitate the Imperial command structure with a single blow. Has the Warmaster allowed himself to become an unwitting target? And can Gaunt's Ghosts possibly defend him against the assembled killers and war machines of Chaos?

Some character voices are unbearable, good overall

Some characters voiced by the narrator are absolutely unbearable. Specifically the child Yoncy Criid when she is crying or whining the narrators voice gets so high pitched and shrill I cannot stand it. I still to this day do not know what happened during any scene where he uses this voice as I had to skip through them.

Outside of that the performance is well done. The voice acting is emotional and there is a vast variety of voices and the inflection and tone changes based on content which is very nice.

I had to deduct some points for the story as it feels incomplete. I cant go as far as to say its a short story as it is plenty long enough but it feels like there was a lot of padding added in some places to make it long enough and this book is just being used to set up the coming ones.

Worth the time and credit for sure, but beware the shrilling voice of the crying little girl.

what the feth!

I have read all of the ghosts books. Multiple times. I love the story and the characters. This is my first audio book of the series and it was excellently performed. I have waited 2 years for this...I am thoroughly disappointed. I will read it when my paper copy comes in, however, it feels like half a book.

meh.

this breaks my heart. I love Dan Abnett and never read a book of his that I didn't like until now. I found this installment of Gaunts Ghosts to be dull, uninspiring and predictable.

things are not helped by a poor narrator. the characterizations by the narrator fall short. all the men sound the same as do the women. and his characterization of a child's voice is insufferably ear piercing. it's painfully bad. a narrator like John Keeble would have salvaged this mediocre entry at least. if I see this narrator again on a listing I'll more than likely skip it altogether.

Terrible narration

The story seems solid enough as you would expect from Dan Abnett (although in the 4 hours I've endured I've thought he's been reaching for plot a few times) but the narrator is terrible. Don't get me wrong, the narrator has a good voice but he does terrible voices. Gaunt and other worthies have the same English accent, all of the Tanith have the same Scottish accent and all of the Verghast and Beladon have the same Russian accent, many of which are performed laughably. While all the voices are pretty poor and left me dreading any passages of extended dialogue there are two that stand out as particularly bad, any member of the Adeptus Mechanicus "I AM A ROBOT!" and any female character, all of which (and especially Yoncy Criid) were utterly cringeworthy. In short, the narration was so bad that it has ruined any enjoyment I could take from the story and I will be returning it for a refund after posting this review. I'm also a huge fan of the Alien franchise and, to put it into context, James Cameron Stewart's performance left me with the same feeling as watching Alien: Covenant. :-(

New to the series, and now I'm hooked

This is only the second Astra Militarum-focused novel in the Warhammer 40000 franchise that I've read or listened to. It's a very intriguing look into both the daily life of an average Guardsman and into the political machinations of high command. The action scenes are quite well-written, and the narration is top notch. I highly recommend this book to anyone, though be warned: you'll want to go back and start the whole series from the beginning.

did anything happen?

I haven't read any other book in this series. And I believe they're probably required for this book seeing that it has no beginning or end all just middle. I never had any idea what was going on

Worst book in the series

This book is pure filler. It's an obvious setup for the next book and lacks a lot of the story that makes the other novels such an enjoyable read. There's little action and what there is, has been done before. I could almost believe that this wasn't written by Dan Abnett, which is a shame because after 2 decades of reading his novels this one is the only bad book I've come across and it just so happens to be in my favourite series.

Fething brilliant

A nett has done it again. This far in to the series he still manages to give us something new with the Ghosts. The evolved conflict of the Crusade, the politicking of High Command, the character development - it's exactly what you want and more.

My only drawback is that the performer cannot, for the fething life of him, do a decent female voice. Ruined the otherwise fascinating character of Yoncy for me. But he makes up for it in part with other great voices.

More losses for the ghosts

It's been awhile since I last read a gaunts ghosts novel but was very enjoyable. Dan Abnett doesn't pull the punches but without jeapody there is no excitement. Narration was good.

all voices great, except young girl voice

seriously, any scene Yoncy was in I hoped she'd never speak. super squeaky voice was too accurately annoying.

but so many great voices and accents, differing between the tanith, verghast and belladon characters was great.

story and performance top notch.

Read it instead!

book was 100% awesome. the narration was horrendous however. i will never listen to another book narrated by this james stewart bloke. genuinely struggled to listen. Definitely recommend that you READ this book instead of listening to it.

Gaunts Ghosts is great as a novel but not in audio

Gaunt's Ghosts is a great series but I just couldn't get past the narrator's character voices so much so that i went and purchased this in hardcopy to read.
